Some new life has been breathed into Meridian Mall with the arrival of another retailer.

If you haven't been to the Meridian Mall in Okemos lately, you may need to make a trip because there is a brand new store open. BoxLunch is now open!

I know that going to the mall looks a little bit different these days, but stores like BoxLunch make it feel nostalgic again because it is just so fun to shop in!

What Is BoxLunch?

If you're unfamiliar with what BoxLunch is, here's the gist; no, you can't buy lunch there... unless you want lunch to be candy and chips... but I digress.

BoxLunch is a store for anyone that loves a particular fandom. Do you like Harry Potter? The Lord of the Rings?

Hello Kitty? Disney Princesses? Winnie the Pooh? Huntrix? Gilmore Girls? Star Wars? I think you get the picture...

If there's a fandom that has a special place in your heart, you can bet that BoxLunch has some kind of merchandise for you to enjoy. Maybe it's a sweater or a t-shirt or some jewelry or a coffee mug or a purse, or literally anything anything else, BoxLunch probably has it.
